Eliminating boom bales

Hello, I have a 18ft sailboat with a 125 square foot mainsail and a 12' 7"
boom. I would like to use high tech line instead of boom bails. The boom
doesn't have a track on the bottom and the foot of the main runs thru a
groove in the top of the boom. Its a pear shaped aluminum section. Any
ideas/hints ect. ?????

Best Wishes, Steve Ross
